LOGO is a graphics programming language; I haven't touched it since
primary school, but I recall it had a triangular cursor which started in
the centre of the screen called the "turtle", and you gave it commands
along the lines of move forward, move backwards, pen up, pen down, pen
colour x, etc, and with combinations of these and various repetition
loops you could make some pretty impressive moiré patterns, etc.
No doubt someone on the list will point you to the documentation before
long.
